7.0 Grounding
Shield (drain) continuity must run from the reader to the access panel. Shield (drain) and reader ground must be tied
together at the access panel and connect to an earth ground at one point.
8.0 Power and Voltage
Delta multi-technology readers may be powered by the access panel, so the reader is powered on when the access
supply is powered on. However the best case is to power the readers by a separate, linear power supply. Voltage can
range from 5 to 14 VDC, 12 VDC is nominal.
